Our goal is to help you find the right tool for the job 

We’ve never seen a comparison page where the company writing the comparison doesn’t come out looking the best. That’s not our goal. We want to help you make the best decision about the tool you will use to create your app.

We’re Biased, Not Ignorant
There are some cases where Glide will make the most sense. We want to show you where Adalo is a better fit.
Bang For Your Buck
We’re looking specifically at what’s possible in Adalo vs. Glide & how much it will cost for that result.

3 Reasons to Choose Adalo Over Glide

Complete Design Control

While you can make some fantastic-looking apps in Glide, you’ll soon be limited to the templates and components they have designed. With limited design options, you might find yourself wishing you could make changes to really customize the look and feel of your app. With Adalo, your app can be as customizable as you’d like. Adalo offers the ultimate level of flexibility in design, so your app can be as unique as your business.

Publish Your App Everywhere

Your customers use their phones and their computers on a daily basis & for different reasons. At Adalo, we believe the best businesses work to connect with their customers on every device — so we’ve made our apps accessible on all platforms: the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store, and the web. Glide is only available on the web.

Connect Your Business Data

Glide was built to be powered by Google Sheets, while they have expanded their integration options, Adalo offers an open-ended database that can be powered by any datasource with a REST API. You won’t be boxed into a tool & you can use the data you already have!
